This set came out last year (Eva has already introduced us to Christi Belcourt for 'B'). Grandmother Josephine Mandamin was a water rights activist and co-founder of Mother Earth Water Walk

Elisapie Isaac is an Inuk musician, actress, broadcaster, filmmaker, and activist.  In the background is a landscape view of Nunavik where she was born and raised.  An Inuktitut version of the Fleetwood Mac song Dreams

We could do with water walks here (our privatised water companies have wrecked the environment) although the lakes would not be so great a challenge to walk around. A bitter sweet memory from Elisapie.
Here are some butterflies
